What are the installation steps that I should follow when using the Structural Support pads? I have a Bare Concrete floor & walls to be tiled.

Roger, installation of the DreamLine SlimLine base is very simple. The base is installed to the studs. It does not get screwed or nailed into place. A bed of mortar is spread under the base, all along the area that you will be standing on. The mortar should be the consistency of thick pudding so you can trowel it out from 1/2" to 3/4" thick at the edges and slope it down to 3/8" thickness around the drain area. I have attached a link to the manual for this product for you to review. http://www.bathauthority.com/pdf_files/manuals/SLIMLINE_SHOWER_BASE_MANUAL.pdf If you have any other questions, please call the DreamLine Technical Support Line at 866-731-2244.

Sorry for the misundersatnd, I do not like the plastic slinline base, I like the rubber member as base and tiled it. If you want to use the base, first, you have the level the area under the base, once it is level and dried, you have to apply some thinset cement on four corner of the base, and set the base on top and level the base.

It is very simple. I set the unit in pace. Next I hooked up the drain, Then I pre-drilled holes in the flange. Last I secured the flange to the studs with coated screws. It was a piece of cake.

You have to install 2x4 wall and a 4" step for the entry area to set the parameter of the shoswer base, if you have the room, i like to set a 3x5 area for the base. apply thinset or level concrete to level the concrete inside the base area. You must have a shower drain to be install inside the shower area. Then apply a rubber membrane inside the shower area, and at least 4" higher than the floor, apply thinset again to pitch the entire shower area toward the shower drain. Once the thinset is dry, you can apply apply tile to the floor and the wall.

Built-in... No additional pad is needed. Still needs to be located on a appropriate gravel or concrete foundation.

since we actually install thermosoft by applying self-leveling cement prior to installing tile over thinset, it should be no problem. However, we staple the wires to keep the profile at a minimum, getting the wire to lay flat may be awkward, but doable

If installing in hardwood, or carpet with a plywood substrate, simply unscrew the portion above the rubber bumper, drop the wood screw into the hole, tighten into predrilled hole. Screw the top back on. If installing in a tile floor you need to predrill a hole to accommodate the metal nut like piece. Drop the piece into the hole and follow the steps above.

You will need either anchor bolts or get hilti bolts, and bolt down the perimeter base into the slab directly or onto 2x4's. If you have any other questions, please call.

Actually, the 3M foam pads only hold it until the silicone sets. It's the silicone which makes the unit stick. Tip is to use all the silicone to create a gasket. Prep is important. Clean tiles with alcohol so there is no grease or oil to hinder the bond. If you are skeptical of the silicone amount given in the package buy an additional small amount of bathroom/kitchen clear silicone. Mask the area around the outside for a clean job and use the soapy finger trick to wipe off the excess to make a nice looking pro job.

They attach with screws (included). I drilled pilot holes before attaching. I've been using them with a tile floor for 5 months now and they're still working great. The pads with an adhesive backing didn't last a week.

Just lay the pad on the floor and place the mop on top of it. There is Velcro on both surfaces.

It is not recommended since you would generally install it with thinset. If you were to manage it you would risk the tile behind coming loose as well.

The waves I bought came with the pad on them and I'm not sure if there are replacement pads, but I'm sure you could make something fairly easily to replace it if it got damaged or something. I'm not sure what the weight limit is but if you have drywall you should have studs, so just get a stud finder (the have really good, easy to use ones now) and use the templates that they send with the wave and it should go up easy. If you can't find any studs for some reason I would go down to the hardware store and talk to someone that knows what they are doing and ask what type of wall anchors you could use. I hope that helps...you will just love the wave it is such a nice product!

This item is part of a organizing solution called Rubbermaid FastTrack Garage Organization System. You would have to anchor the FastTrack rails into your concrete. http://www.rubbermaid.com/Category/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?CatName=GarageOrganization&SubcatId=FastTrackGarageOrganizationSystem&Prod_ID=RP091559

These tiles are light and pretty easy to place or pull apart. You can try without putting anything underneath. If they slide, you can always pick them up and put underlayment down to keep them from sliding. Best thing to do is to border against wall/heavy furniture as suggested by Angie. Another thing is, don't drive your car on it. It's not meant for that kind of pressure/weight.

Are you installing tiles if so I recommend using a Brady board or wonder board on top with thinset to set the tiles. If you set in the basement usually that is concrete you will be fine to install wood floors on top of the heating pad.

This is the manual for the Slendertone that shows where you can place the pads.http://www.hayneedle.com/images/pdf/SLD007.pdf

I tacked it down on wonder board with pl400. Then set tiles on it with a 3/8 inch layer of thinnest mortar

I'm not sure I understand. You need racks with pushers for your wall. The mat provides a smooth surface to move the tiles on. The mat does exactly what it is supposed to do. You build your wall of tiles against the racks.
